I'm 23 and expecting a baby girl in October. My friends aren't very helpful and its been 21 years since my mom has had a baby so she isn't very up to date with the new products. My question is what products are really helpful and which ones are going to sit in the corner and barely get used. Like almost everyone else I am on a budget but I don't mind spending the extra money on products that are going to help me. The main problem I'm having is trying to figure out if I will be using a jumper, the vibrating seat, and the saucer, or is best just to get one. Also is it best to get a convertible car seat or an infant car seat or a travel system and if the convertible car seat is best what do I carry the baby around in since the car seat will remain in the car? Any other tips on the best products to buy and the worst would be very helpful! Thank you so much!!
For a newborn baby, you don't need much else besides a crib and maybe a swing. Everything else is secondary. When they get a bit bigger (like 5-6 months) an exersaucer is a good buy, but you can pick ones up pretty cheap online. I think that a convertible car seat is good for someone who is on a budget, but the travel systems sure are handy. Find a travel system that goes up to 30 lbs though because babies can easily reach 20 pounds before they are 9 months old. Good luck!
I would definitely not get all three products. Your baby can get comfortable with only just one. Also, in my opinion, having too many swings, jumpers, and such will not encourage you to spend as much physical, one-on-one time with baby. :-)
clothing- onesies are the most impotant next to sox and then mits.Have plenty of onesies because they really come in handy. after that a couple of outfits that are 0-3 months. Try not to buy too many new born clothing because babies grow at such a rapid pace. They go through cloths really fast. If your breast feeding then a boppy pillow is a must and also a pump without these two things you will not last. sooo many women give up breast feeding. my opinion is if your on a budget then breast feed it saves money big time, you lose whieght faster, and your baby is healthy. a portable bouncy seet or swing is a must when it comes to toys. it helps big time. a play pen is a big one. cribs are not a must if you are on a budget because you can use the play pen as a crib as i have learned my grandmother did for two of her children. a baby bath, wash cloths, stroller, diaper bag, pacifires big time(they lose them all the time so get a clip to hold it down.), swattleing blankets and birp rags you can never have enough of, and a highgene kit... stock up on these things every time you get a coupon or see them on sale!!!shampoo, lotion, baby pouder, diapers, diaper rash cream, and whipes.GET the important thing first then wait till after the baby shower befor you buy a bunch of cloths and stuff. PRIORITY THINGS ARE: car seet(costco), stroller, breast pump, play pen(target)<<<----- (cant be cheep! on those four things you must buy good quality.)boppy pillow(walmart)
Toys are so hard to resist but they are last on your list of important things. You dont have to spend an extreme amount on toys to make your baby happy. toys that clip or attach and untach to car seets, strollers, play pens and cribs come in handy. toys that make noise but arent going to drive you crazy like rubber ducks, rattles, and pull and vibrate toys babies love. a couple of texture and chewing toys. then the last thing is JUST A COUPLE of somewhat expensive toys of your choice that have to do with learning, like a lay and play. Most everything on the list that I named exept for the things on the (proirity things) can be bought at walmart. If you know anyone who has had a baby then hand me downs are the best(when it comes to sertain things). babies cost soooo much already so thank God for whatever you are given.
God bless you and I hope this way too long message helped.
I found it to be very necessary to have a bouncy seat. It provided her entertainment and relaxation and was perfect for if she took a quick nap. My daughter had colic and she loved being in it when she was unhappy. I think it took her mind off of whatever was bothering her. I also think a swing is a necessity. The travel systems are great b/c the stroller usually comes with carrier and my daughter was in her carrier until about 6 months (she was very heavy to carry though!!) Also b/c if they fall asleep and you are out and about you can keep them in the seat to take them into stores and they will most likely stay sleeping. A sleeping baby is a happy baby!! Sometimes you can get great deals at yard sales and on e-bay or craigslist.
something that has been a helpful to me is a snap n go stroller frame. Its soo much easier to flip out this little frame and stick your car seat on it. If you are not getting a travel system I would deffinatly recomend this. I got a travel system but my stroller is kinda big (its a safety 1st stroller) I mean its a great stroller if we are out side for a long time, but for quick trips to the store, i love my snap and go stroller. My sister is due in Febuary and she is getting a car seat and a snap n go stroller frame untill spring time then she is getting a jogger stroller. Also if you are going to have the baby in your room, Fisher price makes this seat is calls a Newborn Play and Sleep chair, Its a seat that is actually a certified bassinet and it sleeps at a 45 degree angle (my son has to sleep inclined) I originally bought it because its so portable, i can use it as a bedside bassinet and it was only $50. (im a single mom on a tight budget) But then my son was diagnosed with severe acid reflux (GERD) so he has to stay at atleast 30 degree angle at all times and this seat has been a lifesaver! It folds up pretty flat so I take it everywhere with us when we go to visit family!
I was in a similar boat right before my son was born, i'm 26 and a single parent on a really tight budget. but i've found that the most handy things to have are his playpen I bought one of the more expensive pack and plays from walmart and it has been a lifesaver it is a regular sized playpen with a insert that attaches to the sides that raise the bottom up for while he's this young but when he's older i can eliminate it a attachable mobil a diaper pouch that snaps on the side to old the diapers and wipes pluse cream and such and it also has a a easy to remove changeing table. it sounds like a lot but when jax was born i didn't have a crib yet so i just used the playpen and it was easy to move about the house so whereever i was he was and i was nice to have him so close right beside the bed at night and everything was right there for me to change him i just kept some pemeasured botles by the bed with the formula powder so all i had to do was mix it up feed him change him and right back to sleep he went with very minimal stimulation. Also bottles if your bottle feeding the more the better I wish i would have had more at the start washing them constantly was a bit of a pain i've found you can never have to many onesies or recieving blankets my little man is a squirter though so you may not have that problem with a girl lol. I went for the travel system it's nice because the base stays in the car and all i have to do is snap it in and out but it also snaps right on the stroller and the best part is i can contiue to use the stroller after he has grown out of the seat because it is just a regular stroller with a attachable bar for the seat once he's bigger i take the bar off and just put him in the regular seat it was a bit pricy to but i was thinking in the long run i'll save because i won't need to buy another one for a few years these are also really good things to add to your list if you have a shower some of your family members could even go together to get one that way no one is spending that much and you still get long time use out of them. as far as worse products go i was given a diaper wipe warmer and have yet to bother plugging it in( honestly i didn't even know what it was at first i had to have someone tell me lol i had never heard of it before) and also most baby toys can wait jax is a whole monh old now and has yet to show any interest in them because he's still a little to small to play with them yet he's just as entertained when i put the playpen next to a window and he can look out so those are things you could probably wait on....i hope this helped and sorry it was so long lol
Our baby hates being confined, so the Pack in Play has gone unused.
While we did end up using a boppy for nursing, I started off just using pillows from the bed or sofa.
I also carry our baby in a carrier A LOT, so I didn't use on contraptions like swings, bouncers, Bumbos, play pens, strollers, etc. I had two baby carriers--a stretchy wrap and a ring sling. The carriers helped me to get things done while keeping my hands free and the baby happy/quiet. They also helped us have snuggle time and skin-to-skin time when we encountered small roadblocks with breastfeeding. If you want info on baby carriers, you can check out www.thebabywearer.com
:stroller,carseat,the bouncer that rocks and swing and a crib newborns dont really need much their more into the mommy. then a floor toy and crib toy when they get a little older for motor skills
if you can find like a 3 in 1 that would be great
all that extra stuff will handycap the baby independence and learning skills
I have a 10 week old son and can tell you what I use and what I would do different with my next child. First, my son has very bad allergies. He is allergic to milk protein, polyester, non organic bath washes and lotions. These are the ones we know of so far. He also was 9lbs 12oz at birth and is 16 lbs 8 oz and 25" now. This meant no newborn clothes or diapers. We bought all 0-3 and up. Gowns, onesies,sleepers, socks all 100% cotton after finding out about my sons allergies. Receiving blankets, he'll only sleep swaddled. Breast pump, bottles, we use a craddle, 1 playmat, changing pad, swing, diaper bag (the one given at the hospital), nasal and mouth aspirators, travel system, nail clippers, baby bath, organic bath wash, eczema cream, diapers, rash cream, wipes and pacifire (however, he doesn't always like one and we went thru like every brand). These are all things we use every day and if I have to pick one item out of the big ones that I rely on the most, its my travel system. I use it in the house, in the car, walking, at stores and even when we go to peoples houses. It works as a carseat, stroller, chair, rocker, feeding chair, quick bed, tote cart. It is so versatile! I am also glad that I bought it brand new, with as much as I use it, it was worth every penny!
One way to save money. Make your own baby wipes. All you need is a container that seals tightly. Target has a nice one in their tupperware isle. Pinch the tabs on the top to pull out or press in. The container itself is clear but the lid is gray (i believe). The size I bought was $8.99. Then you need soft paper towel such as Viva. Cut the paper towel in half and carefully discard the center tub (this is the hardest part but not too difficult). You will pull wipes from the center. Use two cups of water. You can either boil the water first or not. Once boiled and cooled (if this method is chosen) mix in 2 tablespoons baby wash/bath, and 2 tablespoons baby oil. Mix together. Place cut and cored paper towel in container. Poor solution over towels. Cover and shake. Depending on your preference you can use more water if you would like wetter wipes. These are very inexpensive. Most expensive is the paper towel but look for them on sale and you get two containers of wipes out of one roll. The baby oil and wash will last many containers of wipes! Not only are they less expensive they are better for your baby's skin.
Additionally, try craigslist for things you need. I got a changing table for $25 a rocking chair for $50. People are always selling travel systems/strollers. You just need to check everyday. Garage sales are good options too. I've gotten bottles, bumbo seat, jumper gym thing all really cheap at garage sales. I know its getting to be winter now but they are a life savor.
Oh and a friend of mine told me to always shop for the next year at the end of each season.
Get in mom groups in your area; they can be of great help as well.
Good luck.
I had a baby girl in September, & even though I'm not a single parent, I was on a budget, because my boyfriend didn't have the job he has now (which allowed a pay increase). I use my swing the most. My little girl will nap in it. I got a travel swing, which is great! If you don't plan on traveling, try to get a plug in swing. Everyone has different babies though. Even though Kaylie loved her swing, your little girl might not!
If you are planning on having a baby shower (and, I would assume you are), go and register at Target or Babies 'R' Us. I prefer Babies 'R' Us because they have a bigger range of products. Register for a crib, pack-and-play (unless you plan on staying home, but these are VERY helpful for summer if you want to do things outside, OR if you visit a family member overnight.), and a swing or bouncer (I got the swing, and the bouncer, but Kaylie preferred the swing, so we don't use the bouncer anymore), and although a lot of parents don't use their changing tables, I really like mine. I would suggest getting a tub that changes, and not just a newborn sink sling. Always register for Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo (but the hospital will give you little sample bottles, try to get more then one, they are great for the diaper bag!), lotion, and things, and of course, Diapers. I registered for size 1, 2, & 3, because you never know how long a baby will be in NB diapers. Kaylie, ended up being pre-mature and in Preemies & newborns for a while. I always say "Id rather put her in a big diaper, because I ran out of NB then have 10 boxes of NB and her be in size 1". Definitely think about what your situation calls for. If you plan on breastfeeding, try to get a really nice pump, if you can't, see if your hospital will RENT you one, (it gets costly, but the insurance might rent it for you, if you can't latch your baby, mine bought me one.) but owning one is the best. I would suggest a boppy pillow, I use mine all the time, (tummy time, or just propping her up a little), but you can use just a regular old pillow to help support you while breastfeeding. Register for one, and at least 2 slip-covers (they're amazing). I would suggest a little bottle of All-Free & Clear or Dreft (so the baby doesn't get a rash) but I stopped using it after Kaylie was 2 months. Don't buy too many clothes for your baby before your baby shower! ALWAYS try to see what you need first if you are on a budget! And if you do get something, and someone buys you the same thing as a gift, try to return one (it wont hurt their feelings!). As for the Jumper or the Exersaucer, see if you can get an exersaucer that jumps too. Some of them have a little bounce to them. The "walk around" exersaucer is what I enjoy, because she can learn to walk in it. However, they aren't necessary for a few months. (Christmas anyone?) Remember that a lot of things out there are luxury, and not necessity! Try to register for the things you think YOU will use. I prefer the convertible seat, but if you can get a travel system & a convertible seat (try to get one of the one's that hold up to 100 pounds). I used my infant seat (travel system) until Kaylie had head control, and then switched to the convertible one, because the infant seat was hard to carry back & fourth. If you register for a travel system & a convertible seat but only get one or the other, I would suggest getting an infant seat from a consignment shop. But remember to check the seat's manufacture date, & ask about recalls. No consignment shop should sell anything that has been recalled! If the seat is older then 6 years you CAN NOT use it! Try to get a snugride 35 by Graco, it's the TOP infant seat. and I loved it. Definetly purchase a Cozy Cover for the infant seat, because your daughter will be small during the winter.

The campaign will address the various forms of sexual violence including child pornography, child prostitution, online grooming, child sex tourism and child sexual abuse.
The future study
Given the complexity and sensitivity of the issue at stake, the Council of Europe wishes to prepare a study to inform and guide the campaign. The study should cover inter alia the following dimensions:
The proposed length for research articles addressing one of the aforementioned issues should be no more than 8,000 words (about 15 to 16 A4 pages, normal spacing) and should be submitted in one of the official languages of the Council of Europe, i.e. English or French.
Following the selection procedure, a limited number of experts will be invited to work with the Council of Europe on a contractual basis, during the period between April and June 2010.
Building a network of professionals
The experts who will contact us will be also invited to express their interest in cooperating with the Council of Europe in the various projects and activities to be launched during the campaign, the objective being to build a network of professionals wishing to bring their expertise and the results of their work to a community of practice at European level.

Read A Sample Chapter Chapter 8
Rabbi Avrohom Chaim Feuer has long been a favorite of ArtScroll readers. His Tehillim/Psalms translation and commentary has become a classic. His other works, too, are staples for discerning readers in search of the unique Feuer blend of insight and scholarship, not to mention the wealth of stories that flavor his expositions.
Now the master is back with a new book, on a subject that touches every Jewish heart and home.
Tzedakah -- most people call it charity, but it is actually far more than that. The words root is related to justice, because charity is much more than merely a nice thing to do if money is available. Helping others is the just, the right, thing to do -- and the obligation of tzedakah rests on everyone, rich and poor alike.
In this broad-ranging book, Rabbi Feuer examines the full gamut of tzedakah from every conceivable angle: the giver, the collector, the recipient, the many varieties of kindness, from a smile to a favor to a contribution. The book contains hundreds of anecdotes about the great and unknown. The sources are here, too: the Torah, the Talmud, the Midrash, the Halachah, the responsa, the decisions of the great leaders of this and recent generations.
This is a practical book, as well as an inspirational one. It deals with the sort of questions that conscientious people ask all the time: How much must I give? What are the priorities? Am I required to give my time and work? Do I have the right to turn down a request? What should I do about the unsolicited gifts that clutter my mailbox? In addition to his own research, Rabbi Feuer has consulted many of the great halachic authorities to clarify the myriad such halachic issues.
What do you look for in a book? Information? Clarity? Accuracy? Necessary information? Entertaining and inspiring stories? An author whose warm, generous, concerned, and engaging personality glows in every sentence? Then this book is for you.

LANCASHIRE and England legend Andrew Freddie' Flintoff is urging cricket fans to act fast with Ashes tickets now on open sale
The Third Investec Ashes Test match between England and Australia will take place at Old Trafford on August 1 to 5 next year and tickets sold extremely well to priority ticket applicants.
Tickets are also now on open sale for next September's NatWest ODI versus Australia.
Only a limited amount of tickets remain for the first three days and supporters are urged to act promptly in order to avoid disappointment as the Club expects to sell out quickly.
Freddie said: "Who could forget the last Ashes held at Old Trafford in 2005? It had everything...drama, excitement, wickets, runs.
"Over 30,000 fans were locked out on that final day - that's something I will never forget!
"It's been a long time coming, but I for one cannot wait for the Ashes to come back to Old Trafford. I'm gutted not to be involved on the field but I'll certainly be there cheering the lads on!
"As we all know, the North West is a hotbed for sport and cricket is certainly no different.
"This time cricket fans will be able to watch all the excitement and drama in a brand new, redeveloped Old Trafford, which will be one of the best stadiums in the world!
"I'm sure tickets will sell like hot cakes, so I urge everyone not to miss out like those unlucky 30,000 fans on the final day in 2005."

For further information, please call the Ticket and Membership Office on 0161 282 4040
Please note: Spectators are able to purchase up to four tickets per day.

It seems more like a Lore (which "defines an area of knowledge for the character") to me. In my game I'm treating it as such. Probably has no effect and is covered by "Rule 0". Just sharing.

A collection of other-worldly style crafted in recycled sterling silver, 18k gold, and 14k vermeil.
In my first astronomy class we took the eye piece off a telescope one night during a full moon and projected the glowing image onto the palms of our hands. There aren't really words to describe the feeling of holding the moon in your hand, but I've been totally enchanted ever since.
The art of reticulation is a process of manipulating metal with high heat to create craters, ridges, and valleys into virtual lunar landscapes. While it's actually a highly technical process, the outcome is completely organic and impossible to control. Although the overall aesthetic is consistent, the more subtle variations are infinite, which helps keep the process fresh and exciting.

Determining how the immune system of some patients is able to control hepatitis C virus (HCV) is felt to be a very important step for designing vaccines and therapies for HCV. Several studies have shown that co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) adversely affects liver disease due to HCV. Our laboratory is recruiting patients to further understand the mechanism (s) involved in the interactions between HCV and HIV and how such interactions affect the progression of one another. Patients who are infected with HCV alone or who are also co-infected with both HCV and HIV are being recruited.
GS-7977, GS-5885, GS-9451, and GS-9669 are new medications that are being developed for the treatment of hepatitis C infection. They are still being researched and are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The purpose of this study is to determine whether different combinations and treatment schedules of these medications can be safe and effective for treating hepatitis C infection. The manufacturer, Gilead Sciences, Inc., will provide the study drugs. Study medications and volunteer compensation will be provided.

News and Events Details
The Office of Multicultural Affairs hosted approximately 60 students, staff, faculty, and community members from the Twin Ports area at a reception aimed towards making connections amongst our community. The event is also a way to build a support network that reaches across all levels of the university. Brazzell & Reisser (1999) assert in their chapter "Creating Inclusive Communities" that:
At the core of all models for creating supportive and inclusive communities is the assumption that … when students become part of the institution, they are joining a community that promises to assist them in building a supportive network that will sustain them not only until they graduate but well beyond. (p. 162)
The event included a welcome by Chip Beal, the Diversity Coordinator, a small ice breaker, and conversation over dinner. There was much laughter and great conversations heard all over the Multicultural Center.
The Office of Multicultural Affairs coordinates a Fall Semester reception and a Spring Semester reception as an opportunity for all new and returning students, staff and faculty of African/African American, American Indian/First Nation, Asian/Asian American and Hispanic/Latino backgrounds to make lasting important connections with each other and UW-Superior community allies. All Office of Multicultural Affairs events are inclusive and everyone, regardless of race, is welcome to attend.
Mark your calendars for the Spring Semester Welcome Reception, February 2, 2011 at 5:00 PM. Everyone from the campus and the community is invited to attend and make some new friendships and important connections. Feel free to look at the Office of Multicultural Affairs website for upcoming events.

As the fastest Fire-type in the Neverused tier, Rapidash has its advantages. It has a strong STAB in Flare Blitz, though its power is average otherwise. Rapidash also has a decent movepool, including a reliable recovery move to mitigate recoil and entry hazard damage. Unfortunately, Rapidash is frail and doesn't find much opportunity to use non-attacking moves. Without a way to notably enhance its average attack power, it struggles to differentiate itself from its Fire-type brethren.
This set makes maximum use of Rapidash's higher Attack stat, focusing on hitting the opponent's team as hard as possible. Flare Blitz is Rapidash's most powerful STAB move and is the move that will typically be used the most. Wild Charge provides coverage against opposing Water-types as well as Charizard. Low Kick allows Rapidash to significantly damage most opposing Rock-types. Morning Sun is preferred if Rapidash is wielding a Life Orb, as it helps mitigate recoil and entry hazard damage; it can also be useful for allowing Rapidash to work around Sucker Punch users. Baton Pass is preferred when Rapidash is holding a Choice Band, as it allows it to scout the opposing switch-in or escape from a check or counter.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
A mixed Sunny Day set with SolarBeam allows Rapidash to break through a few of its normal counters, but Rapidash is too frail to set up and attack. Hypnosis can cripple a counter, but the terrible accuracy makes it unreliable. Hidden Power Ice can hit Altaria extremely hard, but it isn't worth a moveslot otherwise. Will-O-Wisp can cripple physical attackers such as Regirock, but Rapidash is already lacking moveslots and prefers to attack most of the time. Likewise, Toxic can cripple Alomomola and other defensive Pokemon on the switch, but Rapidash has trouble finding room for it. Substitute is an option to block status and make Rapidash harder to revenge kill, but it doesn't want to cut into its HP any more than it does already. Rapidash can run a special attacking set with Sunny Day, Fire Blast, SolarBeam, and Hidden Power, but Charizard and Simisear are more powerful options. Choice Scarf Rapidash can be used due to its high Speed, but it lacks power. Flame Charge and Agility are the only boosting moves Rapidash has, but they do not improve its average power and there are better options to Baton Pass such boosts. Quick Attack provides priority, but is extremely weak. Finally, Rapidash can use its Flame Body ability to try and burn opponents, but it is far too frail and prefers the possible power boost from Flash Fire more.
Checks and Counters
Dragon-types such as Altaria and Dragonair wall Rapidash unless it carries Return or Hidden Power Ice. Rapidash is walled by Alomomola and physically defensive Seismitoad unless it carries Hidden Power Grass or SolarBeam. Regirock and Piloswine can check Rapidash as they can take any move from it and retaliate with their super effective STAB moves. Specially defensive Regirock can even counter the rare mixed Rapidash, as it avoids the 2HKO from SolarBeam. Gardevoir can Trace Flash Fire and tank a Wild Charge, then retaliate with Psychic. Bulkier Water-types that can tank a Wild Charge or SolarBeam, such as Samurott and Wartortle, can check Rapidash. Rapidash is frail, so anything faster with a decently powered neutral move can easily inflict a lot of damage to it, if not OHKO it completely. Swellow, Tauros, and many Choice Scarf users, such as Jynx or Primeape, can all revenge kill Rapidash. Priority from Kangaskhan and Basculin can keep Rapidash in check; be aware that Rapidash can play around Sucker Punch with Morning Sun and Baton Pass.

Before the game, Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said Clinton-Dix would play "situationally" against Arkansas. Situationally came earlier than expected as Clinton-Dix touched the field on Alabama's third defensive play.
Clinton-Dix said he found out Friday afternoon the NCAA had lifted his indefinite suspension, which meant he would play in Saturday's game against Arkansas.
He missed two games while suspended for an unspecified violation of team rules, but added that he did everything to "keep his spirits up" while suspended.
He came in at safety when the Tide lined up in its dime defensive package. On the Razorbacks' second offensive drive, Clinton-Dix showed why he is one of the Tide's most important players as he made an interception.
"I've been working hard through this setback with the NCAA and continuing to get better," Clinton-Dix said.
Clinton-Dix played for much of the game until it was out of reach and the Tide started playing reserves.
"It was great having him back," linebacker C.J. Mosley said. "His presence was felt this game."
Injury update
Tide safety Vinnie Sunseri went down late in the first quarter with a knee injury.
Sunseri did not return to the game, but did return to the sideline in street clothes.
Saban said Sunseri's injury "might be serious" and that he would have a MRI on Sunday.
Starting cornerback Bradley Sylve also left the game with an injury. Sylve went out late in the second quarter and did not return. Saban said Sylve has a high ankle sprain.
True freshman running back Altee Tenpenny also went down. Saban said Tenpenny has a turf toe.
Piling on the points
Dating back to 2011, Alabama has scored 104 unanswered points against Arkansas.
The Razorbacks were in scoring position with a field goal attempt, but it was blocked by Tide cornerback Deion Belue.
Receiving touchdowns
Sophomore wide receiver Amari Cooper scored his first touchdown of the season on a 30-yard strike from quarterback AJ McCarron.
Cooper is slowly working his way back to 100 percent after being slowed by toe and foot injuries earlier this year.
True freshman tight end O.J. Howard caught his first career touchdown on a 17-yard pass from McCarron. Howard caught the short pass and walked into the endzone with no Razorback defenders within five yards of him.
Rushing touchdowns
For the 16th straight game, Alabama has recorded at least one rushing touchdown, and has had multiple scores on the ground in 14 of those 16 contests.
In the first half of Saturday's game against Arkansas, Kenyan Drake had a pair of rushing touchdowns, first a 1-yarder followed by a 46-yard score.
Up next
The Crimson Tide has another home game Saturday with Tennessee traveling to Tuscaloosa.
The Vols (4-3, 1-2 SEC) are coming off a 23-21 upset win over South Carolina. Kickoff is scheduled for 2:30 p.m., and CBS will carry the game.
Saban hasn't lost to Tennessee while at Alabama, compiling a 6-0 mark with the last three wins coming by 31 points each.
Before Saban arrived, Alabama had lost 10 of the previous 12 to the Vols.

"He's a one trick pony , One trick is all that horse can do
He does one trick only, It's the principal source of his revenue
And when he steps into the spotlight, You can feel the heat of his heart
Come rising through"
- One Trick Pony, Paul Simon, 1980
The song reference above might be a new one to some of you but it's a 32 year old song with a simple message: "pick one thing to do, and do it really well".
Pirahna Games
clearly took that to heart when making
Mechwarrior Online
; with one game mode, a handful of maps, and a single life per round (you don't respawn when you've been killed which can lead to some long wait times until the next match ), it could be a "less than good" experience.
But it's not.
It's a damn good experience.
First there's the graphics. They're extremely good; as in very, very good as the game uses almost everything that the CryEngine 3 has to offer. There's still some jumpiness from fast moving mechs that could be cleaned up during the final pushes through beta, but other than that, the graphics are crisp, the mech models are extremely detailed, and there are cool graphical touches abound (nothing like the sight of massive volleys of missile fire early on in a match)..
Of course to get around the map and shoot the other teams mechs, you need to master the controls. The controls are mostly straight forward, almost minimalist FPS controls. They are fully customizable but the primary mapping should feel very comfortable to just about anyone who has played a combat-based game in the past 10 years. While the controls will feel comfortable, there's also a complexity to them that goes beyond the difficulty of strafing in most FPS'; it definitely took me a while to get comfortable with adjusting throttle between forwards and backwards while adjusting the direction of the mechs walk and keeping the upper body of the vehicle pointed at the target. It doesn't help that the controls are reversed when backing your mech up but once you get used to it it is all gravy.
The combat is of course where it's really at with this game: two teams of mechs squaring off in combat. There are a couple of different ways to win each 15 minute match; you can either blast away at the other team until they are nothing but charred metallic corpses, or you can attempt to capture the enemy's base. The game is ideally suited for teams working with a chat tool, coordinating assaults across a map of varied terrain. However, in closed beta, I played entirely with folks I didn't know, and I don't mind telling you that I was the first person to die in many of the matches I was in.
That all started to change when I got involved in the portion of the game that will pay for all of your hard work: the mech and pilot customization system. Like most of the F2P games out there today, you charge some amount to your credit card in exchange for tokens for the in-game store. Those tokens buy you different mech chassis which offer different configurations of weapons and defensive attachment points to fit to various gaming skill sets. You can still buy new mechs with in-game currency but it will take a lot of playing before you can afford a new mech.
I found my skill set was in firing long range weapons from just inside the range of my missiles and then getting the heck out of the way. There are several types of mechs with different variations. Each variation is built for a specific types of combat. For example the catapult mechs have several variations that are built about engaging enemies at long distance with long range missiles and variations where those missile pods are replaced with powerful projectile and laser based weapons for close range combat.
The mech lab isn't all lasers and missiles though as it is also where you configure the armor, engine, and heat sinks on your mech. Armor can be added and removed from every section of the mech so that you can remove some armor if you want to squeeze one last weapon on or added it if you find a weak spot that is constantly being exploited.
Heat is a big part of the game and your mechs have to be able to dissipate heat in order to function correctly. So while that Atlas mech that is loaded to the gills with Large Lasers may seem impressive, it's not that good when the mech has to shutdown after firing twice because it can't handle the heat generated by the firepower. Certain maps of the game will emphasize this as the game includes frosty snow levels as well as hot lava worlds.
Beyond upgrading the armor and weapons you can also upgrade the skills of your pilot. What's interesting is that at least to this point, you cannot purchase pilot upgrades, you earn them through experience gained in combat. The better you, and your team do, the more experience you get, the faster you advance. I personally have not been advancing very fast, because even with new mechs, I'm still dying early in combat.
That brings us to the one issue I have with the game; when you die in a match, you're dead. No respawns, which means you get to sit and watch everyone else in your game until a base gets taken or one team or the other is all dead. Hopefully that happens faster than the 15 minute timer for the round, or else you just get to sit there.
If you leave the match before it's done, you don't get credit for the killing you did, or the win your team put together. It's not a show stopper, but it certainly does make the learning curve a lot steeper when you spend more time dead than alive at first
(Update) - We received word from the PR team that this is a known bug in the current beta and has already been fixed. Currently if you do leave a match before it ends you do get credit and experience points if you leave early, it just doesn't show up until the next round or time you restart the game.
There's so much that can change between closed beta and release date, but from everything I've seen so far,
Mechwarrior Online
is a winner, even if it is just a one trick pony.

"First of all this care says "Merry Christmas." Secondly it has room for our pictures. I used the green card as it made a better background color for our photos. It was perfect!"
"I just love Tiny Prints...and ordering this year's Christmas card again reminded me why! this card is beautiful....it was a bit smaller than I originally thought....but looks fantastic! very professional! thank you tiny prints!"
"I loved everything about this card except for the font I chose for the back of the card. It was so tiny you could barely read it. I went with the bracket cutout which looks great on this card."
"I always get nervous ordering things online, so I ordered a sample first. It looked great, so I went for the big order. My photos look amazing and the quality was even better than I expected, for both the template and my photos. Much better experience than I had expected."
"This card is beautiful. I got the pale pink and it is a beautiful shade of soft pink. The design is just enough so that your photo(s) is the star of the card. The paper quality and size are great. I have ordered many products from Tiny Prints and have yet to be disappointed! The only problem is sometimes it is hard to choose from so many beautiful designs!"

Already have in my head how Qualifiers are to be allocated, but would like a full run down. I mean, I thought all clubs wanting a Qualifier were taken care first and only then would a club be allowed a second Qualifier.
Got it laid on me again. It was laid on me first hand, not hearsay. I don't know all the details, but seems one club was denied a shoot date for a Qualifier and another club not only got the shoot date in question, but also got a second Qualifier. So it doesn't look good on paper and right to the point that if known sooner we'd have one less Qualifier. And this same club who got the two Qualifiers this year also got two Qualifiers last year. So more that doesn't look good.
Asked my Area Rep and he had heard and doesn't know why things happened as they did.
I am not worried about shooting X number of Qualifiers. I done made up my mind I'm not dropping that kind of money to attend 6 or more Qualifiers to be in the running for SOY (thought it was 3 at one time). If I shoot one Qualifier and qualify then I won't shoot another. I can shoot 3D closer to home for a whole lot less.

African leader Jacob Zuma talks about apartheid, world race issues.
By Shauntel Lowe, Daily Bruin contributor
In a room lined with images from around the world, people from across the globe gathered Thursday to hear former deputy president of South Africa Jacob Zuma detail his struggles in the fight against apartheid in South Africa, stress the importance of unity, and speak on the issue of race in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
An extended delay of Zuma's flight arrival gave the crowd of about 40 people just over an hour to sit in Bunche Hall and chat among themselves. A professor seated near an image of the pyramids of Egypt told stories of his recent trip to South Africa to a circle of four around him. Across the room, a UCLA faculty member, who is a native of South Africa, discussed with an undergraduate student from Ghana the dangers of being outspoken with political views contrary to those of the South African government.
Conversations gave way to applause as Zuma, security in tow, entered the room and took a seat. An introduction by Allen Roberts, director of the African Studies Center, which put on the event, was the final delay before Zuma spoke.
"I have grown up yearning for South African freedom," Roberts said, just before Zuma took to the podium.
Only making time for a few thank-yous, Zuma delved right into the core subject of his talk: the need for freedom in South Africa and across the entire continent.
Zuma's story began in the 1950s, when he and members of the African National Congress, of which he is currently deputy president, were talking about the need for freedom and an end to apartheid, drafting a bill of rights and developing the 1955 Freedom Charter.
"We realized that it was not enough to just talk," Zuma said. "We had to struggle."
Zuma said the initial plan was to struggle for freedom peacefully and non-violently, even though the government fiercely opposed the liberation movement. However, when nine people were shot and killed at a 1960 demonstration, Zuma said there was "no choice but to declare the armed struggle."
The African National Congress was banned in 1960, but Zuma continued with his anti-apartheid activities. In 1963, because of these activities, he was sentenced to 10 years in jail at Robben Island. Upon his release in 1973, he continued with the struggle.
After going into exile in 1975, Zuma continued to fight for freedom in various countries across Africa, including Mozambique.
He was forced to leave Mozambique in 1987 due to pressure from the government.
Zuma returned to South Africa in 1990 after the African National Congress was reinstated, an event Zuma attributes in part to the government's realization that its military was not as strong as it had been after a defeat in a battle south of Angola.
"I flew into South Africa with two colleagues, not sure whether we'd come back or not," he said.
Back in South Africa, with apartheid gone, Zuma continued his struggle for not only freedom, but also to move forward.
"What has propelled us is the belief you can only have African freedom if there is peace and stability throughout the continent," he said.
Shifting from talks of African freedom to the issues of race, Zuma touched on Hurricane Katrina.
"You need to look at what is happening here. What has happened through Katrina has revealed even the United States still faces a lot of challenges," he said.
The presentation ended with a question from a student about how race relations in the United States can be mended.
"We don't want to pretend we have all the answers," Zuma said. "The problem cannot be an overnight issue."
Leaving just as he entered, amid applause and security, Zuma also left an impression on those who heard his story.
Baylee Decastro, a fifth-year international development studies student who recently returned from spending eight months in South Africa doing research, said she was fascinated by the methods used by the African National Congress.
"We here at UCLA are so blessed and so privileged," she said.

ESPN might decide to air another game.
Garland Gillen@garlandgillen
Hits keep on coming for the #Hornets, Austin Rivers out tonight with a finger injury. It happened yesterday in practice.
ESPN might decide to air another game.
I find it hard to even blame Eric Gordon for his injuries, it's like this team is cursed...
PelicansReport.com Sim League
New Orleans Hornets General Manager
Honestly at this point in his game, is this really that big of a deal? Davis is a much bigger story, I hope he has no long standing effects from this darn concussion.
Last edited by Purple Haze; 11-07-2012 at 11:09 AM.
hahaha, I'd have to agree."Rivers, who participated in the shootaround, said he thought he was playing but the Hornets made a last-second decision to hold him out."
Sounds like Monty is putting white gloves and pink drawers on Rivers.
LOL that's hilarious.
Guys to watch out for (internet tough guys):
Guys that know you are personally a coward despite never meeting you or holding a real conversation with you (psychic or stalker):
Not to sound selfish, but as a fan of this team that lives outside of the FSNO viewing area (I live in Maryland), the only time I get to see these guys play is when its nationally televised. And I would love to see a game with the FULL TEAM for once!!!! They are killing me with these "injuries". I have been waiting all summer to watch these young guys play. Its frustrating....
Damn ESPN just said that Anthony Davis is out also for the Hornets.
That's just not fair.
Tune in on Fridays at 12 noon for Sport-a-Facts with Ro Brown and Wednesdays at 1pm for Sports Revolution to hear me speak my mind on all things Saints and Pelicans related and more.
Only on WBOK 1230 AM.
Feel free to PM me for more details.
This team does certainly seem like professionals at taking the hype out of a game. I wonder how many people have said "yeah, think I'll stay home tonight now that Davis and Rivers are out."
I know these early season games aren't make-or-break, but this string of injures is just ridiculous.
With purple and pinstripes from days gone by, I trumpet Hugo's name to the NOLA sky. When rebranders and posers abuse their might, beware my power, TEAL LANTERN'S LIGHT!
Forever hating the nickname, the logos, and the colors. Still backing the team I've loved since 1994.
Stolen name. Stolen colors. Stolen identity. Still the same old worthless Slobcats. Suck sludge, Charlotte.

We can still take this one. Our opponent is pretty banged up as well. Look at it this way, at least our rookies won't hit their wall as soon as most.
I have never seen anyone miss a game for a finger that isn't even broken. Tape that bad boy up and let's go. Something else going on here.
Rivers not playing isn't that big of a deal right now for me. He's a marginal player and the team will be fine without him. Not seeing Davis play really sucks, but I'm ok with making sure he's healthy. Concussions are no joke. Any slight movement can aggravate symptoms.

This peptide is amino acids 1 to 34 fragment of ubiquitin. The main function of ubiquitin is labeling proteins for proteasomal degradation. Ubiquitin, a 76-residue protein, is shown to have activity against fungal and bacterial pathogens. This N-terminal peptide is stopped at the fungal wall level, whereas C-terminal peptide (residues 6576) is able to cross the cell wall and the plasma membrane of fungi and to accumulate in fungi. It was shown that these two peptides act synergistically to kill filamentous fungi. This N-terminal peptide could be used with C-terminal-derived peptide as a potent anti-fungal agent.
